I've read over a few posts that regard the comic and being able to get it, and I've posted in almost all of them.. One thing that I've noticed is that in some it still remains where the person has NEITHER a local shop OR online ordering as an option (be that through parents, or other circumstances). I know some have said things like “go to e-bay” or “get a subsciption online”, but both of those seem to fall into the online ordering category. For some reason, I can't propose an actual solution to the problem on that one. I myself might be one who suffers through that ordeal once the comic comes out, and then again I might not. I've been thinking a bit lately about how I can't find a local place that will even think of carrying the comic or products, and the fact that I'm a bit iffy about online ordering. Then after reading the posts on here over again I thought a bit about the ones I saw that talked about people not being able to get the comic and other GB stuff. The sad fact is that there are people on this board who will be able to get it, and there will be some who won't be able to get it. Considering all of the hype that this project is receiving, and the excitement that many people are feeling about this also has a reverse effect of an anxiety as to whether or not some will be able to get the comic against some decent odds. Not to mention the effect of knowing that many of the people you know from this community might be able to get something that everyone looked forward to and a bit of a “left out” feeling. One thing that certainly gets me is that this whole community contributed things to the comic (ideas, support, and other various things) and sadly not all of us will be able to benefit from it, or it at least appears that way. I know that no solution seems to be in sight to that, but I figured that I would type this up to make it visible how some people on here seem luckier than others by actually being able to support this revival when others can't. Also in part to let them know that they'll also have to keep in mind that there are people who would like to support it, but aren't able to (all support makes a difference and hopefully there will be some way to compensate for the support that can't be shown). I also can't forget the one fact that I do want to make clear, that I sympathize with those that might not be able to do much in the way of this revival (as far as being able to purchase the newer things goes),and that I hope that some way for ALL of us to be able to reap some of the rewards from this revival will just pop in there. And that opinion in my mind isn't going to change even if the comic and new items become overly abundant out of nowhere in my area, considering that I'd still know that there are fans out there who can't even get their hands on the stuff that they looked forward too. I guess the mods can do what they wish with this one. Maybe they'll think it's junk and get rid of it, maybe they won't. I guess this kind of rant or reflection that can make sense to someone when they write it (even if they only have gotten a few hours of sleep in the past few days), but might not make sense to others. Feel free to post any kind of criticism on this, or opinions (good or bad). I just wanted to try and say something for the people (no matter how few they are) that don't seem to be able to take part in the revival.

Yeah I see your point. I have no good opprotunities to get the comic myself but I decided I am GOING to get that comic no matter what. I'm the kind of person who makes things happen and I will have that comic if I have to beat someone over the head……sorry I got a little carried away……

Good lord, I wish everyone would take a deep breath before bombarding the board with worthless posts. There is still at LEAST 3 months before the comic is released, and at least 2 months before a release date is announced. I am sure someone on the board will buy extra copies so that those who can't get the comic can have a copy. Just take it easy. Out of the 100 topics in this forum, over 70% of them are “HELP! I WON'T BE ABLE TO GET THE COMIC!” Just shut it and wait. We don't even know when it will be released, why worry about it now? Some people…..

I'm not doing this to cause a fight, but for your information, I thought about this for at least 3 weeks before I decided to post it, mainly because of all the posts of people saying “yeah! everywhere in town here is going to have it”. LIke I said, I don't want to start a fight, but before you start bashing someone else's post, you should probably take your advice and think if it's worthwhile.. I'm sure that there are other people on this board that agree with you, but have any of them posted in here? no. Like I said in this, it was here because I wanted to say a few things and put some concerns out here and for a time speak for the people that are saying “damn! nowhere in my area is getting the comic and they just laugh at me when i tell them about it”. I'm not going to fight with you about it, you're intitled to your opinion. I just ask that instead of bashing something that people are concerned with, that you think first. I"m sure that the Mods will do as they please with this.

chrisfhctm1, I feel that you were wrong to call Glycerine's post worthless. I see his post as more like a concern.

Agreed.
im gone.

I'm not trying to say his post is worthless, I am just saying I have had enough of seeing the millions of posts just like this. There should be one topic about people who are concearned they won't get the comic. Instead of flooding the board with exactly the same post. Also, a lot of retailers won't commit to purchasing a comic to one person who walks in the store. When they see it in Previews, they will probably order it. All I am saying is wait until it's released before you go into spin drive. It's not worth getting worked up right now, so just relax.

I'm going to agree that Glycerine's post isn't worthless. On the other hand, how do you want us to react to this kind of post? I too am tired of whining and worrying about whether or not they can get the comic because there's no comic shop near them. All right. Fair enough. My response to that is order it online. Okay, the next thing I hear is that they're too scared to order online or something. Oh well. Fine. Those are your options. Quit posting about this. Chris is right. There should be one freaking thread about this. Now if one of the mods wants to get on my back about this, fine. But that's my opinion.

Paragraphs are your friend, man.

-V.

I've skimmed over a few posts here, and, if you're all willing, I'd pick up the comics and you just gimme the cost of the comic plus any shipping charges and they're your's I don't wanna make any money off of it since that would be morally and legally wrong But, I don't want fellow ghostheads to miss out on getting in on this comic experience I can't wait til this is released I'm all hyped up and waiting for October (as that's when it's probable release is).

So, take care
